Well, the determination to become a student again has begun in earnest. I still need to take the GRE's to apply to most of these, but at least I'm getting something done. So far I'm looking at London (Yeah!), Hawai'i, California, and Oregon (where I have family, albeit scary family). What other schools have impressive Japanese Studies programs? Hmm...

And the writing continues. Mostly because I can't check my damned email because msn has decided to be a royal bitch for the past three hours.

It's only just started working again.

And that's assuming any of them accept me. I'm not so sure I'm that great a student. Especially after taking a year off to do essentially nothing.

Ahaha - that'd kick ass. Dude, I'll be like thirty before I have that much of a degree.

Going for "Japanese Studies" with a specialty in popular culture.

Will you be getting your Master's or PhD? I'm sure that graduate school must be preferable to flipping pizzas. I wish you well in your endeavors!

So we'll be calling you Master? What sort of job can you get with a Master's in Japanese Culture?

quite a bit - oddly enough any degree qualifies you for food slavely (I'm thinking hell no), or I could get a teaching certificate and do that, or be a translater, any gov't job...depending on how I feel by the time I (if I do) get it, I may then try for the PhD. But that's another 3-5 years of school.../rambling.
